A drug trafficking network known as "Ubershit" was dismantled in Besançon, France, with over 600,000 euros worth of narcotics seized. During a press conference on Tuesday, September 22, prosecutor Cédric Logelin announced that investigators had uncovered narcotics with a market value exceeding 600,000 euros. Four men, aged 29 to 40, suspected of being involved in organizing the "Vanweed" drug trafficking network in the area, were arrested the previous Wednesday. They were formally placed under investigation and incarcerated on Saturday for charges including possession, transportation, and sale of narcotics using encrypted communication methods, which carry a maximum prison sentence of 15 years. All four suspects had prior interactions with the justice system, with three remaining silent and one denying the drug trafficking charges, according to Logelin. The investigation into the "Ubershit" network, which used an encrypted messaging app called Telegram for distribution, began in August 2025. Investigators from the local judicial police service in Besançon seized 12 kilograms of ketamine, 24,000 ecstasy tablets, 29 kilograms of cannabis resin, 7 kilograms of cannabis leaves, and 550 grams of cocaine. In addition, they found 8,830 euros in cash, over 26,000 euros worth of luxury clothing, and several vehicles. These items were linked to the suspects and are part of the evidence being used in the ongoing investigation. Laurent Perrault, the interdepartmental director of the National Police for the Doubs region, suggested that the arrested individuals may have been key decision-makers in the network. He noted that the "Ubershit" drug delivery network was relatively well-known among users in Besançon, with approximately 900 people subscribed to the network's Telegram channel. This large subscriber base indicates that the network may have delivered drugs to many individuals in the area. Prosecutor Cédric Logelin emphasized that the Ubershit network has been growing in recent times, with both traffickers and customers believing they are operating discreetly and safely. However, he stressed that the authorities are actively working to dismantle such networks and to show that those involved are not as secure as they may think. The arrest and seizure of this network represent a significant step in the ongoing fight against drug trafficking in the region.
